Milk Orange Omega Becomes Popular Through Dating Variety Show [Entertainment Circle] - Chapter 1

“Ding-ding—”

“Ding-ding—”

A harsh alarm clock blared in her ear. Zhong Lin lazily turned over. Awakened by the noise, her long, curled eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes. Her brown eyes were still hazy with sleep, and her fair, slender calves kicked off the blanket.

Zhong Lin slowly sat up and looked around. To her right was a windowsill with the curtain half-drawn, letting in a somewhat glaring sunlight.

To her left was a white wardrobe. On the nightstand by the bed, there was a half-empty glass of water and a mobile phone.

The environment felt completely unfamiliar. Zhong Lin tilted her head slightly. Perhaps her sudden movement when getting up was too abrupt, as her head was now throbbing faintly. Where… exactly was she?!

Zhong Lin shook her little head. Her wispy bangs, flattened by her sleeping position, bounced as she shook. Her memories were slowly returning, and she gradually recalled what had happened before…

Her name was Zhong Lin, the youngest of the Bai Ze divine beasts sealed by the Heavenly Master Zhong Kui. She had been struck by a white light in the chaos, as if forced into an illusion.

In the illusion, she was reading a book—*After the Green Tea Male Omega Rose to Power, I Became a Sensation*. There was also a character named Zhong Lin in this book.

This person shared her name and looked exactly like her human form.

But the elders in her clan had said that Zhong Lin was the smallest and cutest cub of the Bai Ze clan! And this Zhong Lin in the book was just an ordinary human.

Zhong Lin carefully sorted out the plot of the book in her memory.

First, this was a novel about female Alphas and male Omegas. Humans were divided into male A, male B, male O, female A, female B, and female O.

In short, it was a highly free society with gender equality among six genders.

In this era, technology was highly developed. After satisfying their basic material needs, people began to pursue spiritual life, leading to the emergence of an ecosystem called the entertainment industry.

The Zhong Lin in the book was an obscure internet celebrity who wanted to enter the entertainment industry.

Her contracted company had her participate in an AO dating variety show, *Thirty-One Days of Heart-Fluttering Challenge*, which included male Alphas, female Alphas, male Omegas, and female Omegas—a free dating variety show between Alphas and Omegas.

The Zhong Lin in the book was brainless. Though genuinely naive and foolish, she loved to create drama, was self-centered, never did any work, absolutely loved to diss others, and shamelessly clung to the female Lead Alpha …

She single-handedly served to highlight the male lead Omega’s kindness and cuteness.

The male lead Omega was a delicate flower one yearned to cherish, while Zhong Lin was a weed one wanted to pull out.

She recommended her good friend, the civilian male Omega, to join the *Thirty-One Days of Heart-Fluttering Challenge*. Whenever she acted impulsively and created a scene, the male lead Omega would do his utmost to excuse her, making himself appear pure, unpretentious, kind, and beautiful.

Zhong Lin recalled the entire plot of the book and felt the original owner was a bit pitiful. However, the original owner caused so much trouble that she almost broke the ceiling of the dating variety show, practically a super villain Drama Queen.

This male lead Omega, who was her high school classmate, always indulged her, always believed she was right no matter what, and never corrected her behavior. Her emotional intelligence was misguided into a mudslide.

A “drama queen” in daily life is just a willful little princess.

However, in a dating variety show, every expression and action would be infinitely magnified and over-interpreted, making her appear both bad and stupid.

Such a foolish original owner naturally failed to debut successfully. After the show aired, she was ridiculed by the entire internet, flooded with insults from haters. The “Zhong Lin” who was blacklisted by her company consequently suffered from severe depression.

She then chose to jump from a tall building, resulting in a dramatic tragic ending.

After clarifying her thoughts, Zhong Lin picked up her phone and saw the time was 6:30 AM. This should still be early; the show crew required assembly at 7:30 AM.

Zhong Lin got out of bed and took out a designer white one-shoulder shirt and a pair of denim shorts from the wardrobe.

The denim shorts’ length was just slightly above her knees. This fresh and clean outfit made her legs appear long and straight.

After changing, Zhong Lin went to the bathroom to wash up. She wet her messy bangs and combed them neatly. She looked at the various bottles and jars on the counter below the mirror, opened them, sniffed, and her eyes grew a little bewildered—

As a Bai Ze divine beast, she couldn’t tell how to use these things. Ancient cosmetics looked nothing like them.

…She had no idea how to use them!

(╬◣д◢) So infuriating, she simply wouldn’t put on makeup!

But perhaps because Zhong Lin’s original body was that of a divine beast, Zhong Lin, imbued with natural spiritual energy, was exquisitely beautiful even without makeup. Without a trace of powder, her small face was as fair as porcelain with a perfect flush, her brows were delicate, and her eyelashes thick, as if carefully drawn.

Even her lips were a perfectly soft pink.

Zhong Lin walked straight out the door.

How could she change her tragic ending of getting a ‘bento box’ (dying)?

Zhong Lin felt that she needed to solve the problem fundamentally.

The “Zhong Lin” in the original book was self-centered, never did any work, absolutely loved to diss others, and shamelessly clung to the female Lead Alpha…

Zhong Lin thought, couldn’t she just do the opposite?

First, she had to work. She’d heard the elders in her clan say that working cubs were the cutest (*^▽^*)~

“Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?” Zhong Lin walked over to a staff member who was setting up the scene.

A girl in a pink and white striped shirt stopped, not noticing who was speaking. She assumed it was a temporary crew member. She held a wooden box in her arms and gestured with her chin towards Zhong Lin:

“You can move that box. Take it to the first room on the left in the lobby on the first floor.”

If at that moment, the staff member had looked up at Zhong Lin’s face, they would have been utterly shocked. This person, when she joined the show two days ago, couldn’t lift anything heavy, her hands never touched rough work…

The staff member suddenly called out, “Be careful, it’s heavy…”

“Okay.” Zhong Lin bent down, then lifted the wooden box full of props with one hand.

Staff member: “…” I’m stunned.

As Zhong Lin moved the third box back and forth, she faintly heard someone in the lobby calling her name.

A tall girl with a trendy T-shirt that almost covered her thighs, paired with super short hot pants, stood by the sofa.

This cool girl, exuding an Alpha aura, frowned and asked, “Why isn’t Zhong Lin here again?”

Her tone was clearly a bit impatient.

A girl in a white dress looked worried: “I don’t know… She lives next door to me, and her door’s been closed. Why don’t you go check, Xiaoduo?”

A boy dressed in Japanese style, with light khaki shorts reaching just his knees and slender calves, looked past everyone towards Zhong Lin’s room. He innocently blinked and said, “I knocked on her door for a long, long time this morning, but I didn’t hear her respond.”

“It’s my fault, I didn’t wake Zhong Lin up in time. Should I go call her again?”

Another tall and handsome boy in casual clothes stood straight as a pine, subtly pursing his lips: “Xiaoduo, you’re the only one who spoils her every day!!”

••••

In short, the male Omega named “Xiaoduo” was actually the male lead Omega, Zhou Xiaoduo. He was implying that Zhong Lin was “intentionally” late, and everyone else was ridiculing Zhong Lin.

Zhong Lin was almost completely bewildered. No one had knocked on her door, had they?

“Hi…” Zhong Lin, holding the box with one hand, turned around and waved her other arm, greeting the group.

At the same time, the camera on the coffee table in the lobby zoomed in. The live broadcast had quietly begun.

On the video app, the bullet comments were furiously scrolling—

[How is Zhong Lin awake? The bed-hogging, tardy monster, a once-in-three-millennia sight, is actually awake?!]

[Really? I don’t believe it. This can’t be Zhong Lin, who’s so awkward-looking, with unnaturally large eyes and eyelashes that fly off her eyelids!]

[How did she suddenly change like this? Did she get plastic surgery? How does she look so cute???]

[My whole family is shocked! Let’s see how the dating variety show’s top drama queen, Zhong Lin, continues to make a scene…]

[Zhong Lin, get out of the entertainment industry]

[Zhong Lin, get out of the entertainment industry +1]

[Zhong Lin, get out of the entertainment industry +10086]

••••

Zhou Xiaoduo waved towards Zhong Lin, seemingly feeling guilty about what he had just said, and weakly asked, “Xiao Lin, why aren’t you wearing makeup today?”

“This is for the show. Your bare face… isn’t it a bit inappropriate?” Zhou Xiaoduo was implying that Zhong Lin’s bare face showed disrespect for the program.

Zhou Xiaoduo had many thoughts in his mind. He was Zhong Lin’s high school classmate and had long known that Zhong Lin’s bare face was exceptionally striking, almost like a campus belle.

She was rated by the “flirty Alphas” in high school as the “Omega most desired to hug,” and had even appeared on a Tieba post—*Exposing the Most Pure Omegas in National Campuses*…

But ever since Zhong Lin wanted to enter the entertainment industry, she started wearing heavy smoky makeup, with eyeliner and false eyelashes that flew to the heavens, and she completely lost her charm.

It was finally his turn to shine!

Zhou Xiaoduo, wearing cunning no-makeup makeup, felt resentful.

Zhong Lin lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. She didn’t know how to do makeup, but the original owner clearly did. Wasn’t it better to skip this question?

“I’ll deliver this box first.” Zhong Lin shook her head and continued walking forward.

[66666, she’s bare-faced?!!]

[How did this drama queen suddenly become so cute?]

[Cute, want to… (censored internet slang)]

[Hey, that’s enough! How much of a drama queen is Zhong Lin? Have you all forgotten?!!]

[Zhong Lin is a Drama Queen, I’ll forever hate her. No matter how cute, bad character… it’s useless!!]

Zhong Lin held the box with one hand. She hadn’t paid attention to the road while talking to Zhou Xiaoduo. As she was about to reach the corner of the wall, a figure rushed towards her from the opposite direction.

The girl wore an Audrey Hepburn-style little black dress with a white short blazer over it. She had just come out of the bathroom and was leisurely wiping water droplets from her hands.

Unfortunately, no one realized… the two were walking towards each other and were about to collide head-on!

“You!” The girl hadn’t noticed the road. She was hit by the wooden box and staggered half a step backward.

Her shoulder-length hair, which had been tucked behind her ears, completely fell loose. Two red carnelian earrings in the shape of four-leaf clovers, dangling from her ears, swayed like two drops of glistening bl00d about to fall.

“Ah—” Zhong Lin’s shoulder was heavily impacted. The arm holding the wooden box became unsteady, and the heavy wooden box was about to crash down on the girl.

The edges of the wooden box were unpolished and quite rough.

If the wooden box were allowed to hit, it would likely injure the girl’s delicate profile.

[Oh no, the sky is falling!!]

[Quick, save our Yiyi!]

[Someone quickly kick this troublesome Zhong Lin away!]

Even the staff members were stunned and were about to rush towards the two of them.
